Ordered that the order of disposition is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
The Family Court has broad discretion in entering dispositional orders ( see Family Ct Act § 141; Matter of Michael D., 60 AD3d 945; Matter of Daqwan J., 57 AD3d 780). Contrary to the appellant's contention, the Family Court providently exercised its discretion in placing the appellant with the New York State Office of Children and Family Services for a period of 18 months ( see Matter of Manuel B., 34 AD3d 463; Matter of Gabriel A., 12 AD3d 666). In light of the recommendation in the probation report, as well as the appellant's continuing behavioral issues, the Family Court's order was the least restrictive available alternative which was consistent with the needs and best interests of the appellant and the need for protection of the community ( see Family Ct Act § 352.2 [a]; Matter of Leah G., 23 AD3d 658).
The appellant's remaining contention is without merit.
